Hurtlocker is a bad movie technically. Surprised it is the highest chance besides avatar to win best picture. The pacing is horrible, the movie story felt never really was coherent and they made an excuse to wrap all the mini stories up by having a symbol of time which really bothers me. I would say that up in air was written better in terms of getting both a story and themes immediate. The movie was enjoyable to watch but it was also telling a story effectively. I foudn that, hurt locker failed to make an enjoyable story and put you into that world which is what a movie is supposed to do in the first place. I would say that it was the worst of all the oscar nominated movies.

My only problem with Hurt Locker is I didn't find Renner's character entirely believable. He is supposed to have defused almost 1,000 dangerous explosives, yet in every instance the audience watches his work he is reckless and borderline out of control. I found it to be yet another movie in which the characters act in an unrealistic way for the purpose of advancing the plot. I enjoyed it, but...

Cant say I agree, I feel I got a good view into the pressure that the soldiers have to deal with over there.

I guess Avatar will probably win. I don't get it. I didn't think it was that spectacular.

I want The Hurt Locker or Inglorious Basterds to win something.

I gave up on it after I realized all they're doing is talking about dresses now.

Tarantino is such an egomaniac.

Best compliment you can give to Waltz is "it's one of the greatest characters I've ever wrote"?

Everybody watches the Red Carpet.

It's the actual show that nobody watches.

He's given huge props to Waltz before, though, basically saying that he couldn't have done the movie without him.

See, even Tarantino agrees with me, the character had more to do with his writing than Waltz's ability to bring the character to life :)

He's stated that the movie wouldn't exist without him plenty of times before =\
